Slow tap

I appreciate advice please,
The hot tap in my kitchen doesn't start flowing with any pressure until I've turned it about 4 times. It's not an emergency, but I find it annoying. Any suggestions?

either the spindel has droped or is worn,you will need to take the tap apart and dismantle it, gently file the octaganel brass section,and regrease the spindle(silicone grease).
Or the tap washer has expanded and is sticking slightly to the inside of the tap0 -
Cheers, I need to turn the water off before I play with taps, don't I?0
